My desire is to grapple together here over how well off we are with God through Christ,
and to live from His opinion of us.

Quote of the Day

“. . .Paul (the apostle) saw another way to live in God’s life that was so engaging it transformed his entire life. He knew that our failures all result from the fact that we don’t trust God to take care of us. As Paul grew to know God better, he discovered that he could trust God’s love for him. The more he grew to trust God’s love, the freer he was from those desires that consumed him. Only by trusting Jesus can anyone experience real freedom.” (Italics mine.)

(I am currently reading "So You Don't Want To Go To Church Anymore," by Coleman and Jacobsen, and I'm lovin' it. I'll regularly post some quotes from it so you can get a feel for what the authors are saying. And so you can decide whether or not you want to pick it up.)
